Joseph's wild adventure with DiscoverEU

Joseph, Denmark, Age 18

"It was something that I had always dreamt about."

The planning started immediately when I got this amazing opportunity to go on a Interrail-experience through DiscoverEU. It was something that I had always dreamt about. 

 

I started my journey in Greece where I met up with one of my good friends. From there on we went to Sofia in Bulgaria. 

 

It was two unforgettable weeks filled with spontaneity and unforeseen experiences. One of the things that I remember the best is all of the times when we took a nap or slept a whole night on the train - such as on our 17-hour long train ride through Romania. 

 

To fall asleep to the sound of wheels on rails, in a rumbling train compartment, is almost like getting tucked to bed like a child. To then wake up in a new country, or a new city and feeling like the day is just like a fairytale in a dream, which ends and begins when you fall asleep on the next train. 

 

A journey from Sofia and Bucharest's Orthodox churches to the great rivers of Budapest and Prague, ending with museums and food experiences in Berlin. A wild adventure.
